About: My 3 kids and I run a small business caring for animals mostly dogs. All 3 are in their 20’s. My son, Adam does most of the walks and house sitting, I handle the boarding. My reviews are not only for me but for my boys as well. I come from a long line of animal lovers and grew up with many dogs, cats, birds, hamsters. Animals are my life! They offer unconditional love and rely on us to give them love, affection and to meet all of their basic needs. I own my own home on a private dead end street. When your fur babies are here, they are part of our family and are never left alone. There is always someone at home. My mission is to make sure all pups in my care, feel safe, loved and happy. I recently left my job in the medical field. I’m spending my time now with my adult children and my dogs. Life is too short to not do what you love everyday Safety is a priority in my home and I live on a private street with only two houses so there is absolutely zero traffic here

About: I have about 20 years of experience caring for dogs of different ages, breeds, backgrounds, and temperaments, including strays, purebreds, puppies, senior dogs, working breeds, and dogs in multi-pet households. I have experience with basic training, puppy care, medication, special diets, enrichment activities, structured routines, and dogs who need a little extra patience or attention. I’m also comfortable caring for reactive dogs and understand how important consistency, awareness, and following a pet parent’s established routine can be. I’m happy to work with dogs of all life stages and always try to provide the same attentive, dependable care I would want for my own. I’m very flexible and happy to work around your schedule. This is because I prefer to focus on only a couple of clients at a time to ensure that all pets in my care are receiving the absolute best support and attention I can provide. When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I understand that I’m being trusted with both a beloved animal and someone’s personal space. I’m respectful of your home, belongings, routines, and boundaries, and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you provide. That can include walking your dog along a preferred route, ensuring your cat has their favorite toy or treat, keeping to established feeding and exercise schedules, or taking them on approved outings such as a park visit or another familiar activity. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as comfortable and consistent as possible while giving you peace of mind that both your pet and your home are being treated with care.

About: I’m a huge fan of both cats and dogs and will happily provide the walks, playtime, cuddles, belly rubs, and attention they demand. I love getting to know each pet’s personality—whether they’re a zoomie champion, a professional napper, or a little shy. My work is flexible and can host your pets for long term care. I would be honored to give your fur babies plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I work full-time, but only live two minutes away. I will be able to attend to your pets practically anytime of the day. I currently don't have any other pets staying with me so your babies will have my undivided attention. I live on a large private property with lots of land and space for needed outside time. I live in a small apartment but still plenty of space to comfortable moving.

About: I’ve always loved dogs, and started walking them about 6 years ago. Now I’ve mostly worked with senior pets, usually medium sized dogs. I’m always eager to learn more about any animal in my care, and will stay in touch with daily updates. I’m almost always available, and I have plenty of time to give your pet individualized care and attention. If you need me, I’m there for your pet! I prefer to schedule a meeting to meet you and your pet before sitting for them. That way I’m familiar to them, and I can hear directly from you about any special needs, medications, habits, and things to look out for.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was in school—neighbors and friends would often ask for my help and thank me with small tips, which I used to buy school supplies. Over the years, my love for animals grew, and I eventually adopted my own dog, whom I’ve been caring for for the past nine years. I offer flexible availability on weekends at any time of day, which can be especially helpful in case of last-minute needs or emergencies. I kindly ask that you notify me at least three days in advance for any pet-sitting requests. I prioritize caring for pets in the comfort of their own home, as familiar surroundings can help reduce stress. I also enjoy taking them for walks in their neighborhood to keep them active and happy. I would have flexibility on weekends at any time of the day for greater comfort or if an emergency arises. 2 days before let me know about day sitting. Thank you I would care for your pet in the comforts of their space, sometimes it is easier when they recognize the space and additionally take them out for walks in their neighborhood.

About: I had a 5-pound poodle toy who passed away at the beginning of this year. I adopted him with a lot of health problem and I took a great care of them for 14 years, specially at the last three years that was more difficult due to his age and all the health problems that got more intense. My boyfriend who lives with me works at Vet Emergency Group, so we know the technique to take care of dogs, giving them medicine and deal with them under any circumstances. I am currently working at home everyday. So I have full time to take care of your dog, play with them and walk them in a very green and peaceful area. We live in a condominium with a lots of space, with green area at the back. The surrounding area is very calm and pleasant for your dog. Moreover, my boyfriend who lives with me works at the Vet Emergency Group as a veterinary assistant, so we know how to take care of your dog very well!

About: Hi! I strive to provide a local Bergen County pet care service dedicated to treating every pet like family. I provide dependable, loving care for dogs and cats including daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and small-dog boarding in a calm home environment. Pet parents choose me because I’m: • Reliable and punctual • Gentle and patient with shy or senior pets • Experienced with medications and special routines • Big on communication (photos + updates every visit!) Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or overnight care while you’re away, you can relax knowing they’re safe, happy, and loved. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! Pet care is a regular part of my weekly routine and my primary focus. I structure my schedule around walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays, which allows me to be flexible and dependable for my clients. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings throughout the week, as well as weekends and holidays when needed. I’m able to give pets consistent attention and never feel rushed between visits. My goal is to provide reliable, on-time care that fits each pet’s normal routine. Safety, trust, and consistency are my top priorities when caring for pets. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and attention I would expect for my own. In clients’ homes, I carefully follow each pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, medications, and bedtime so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I keep doors secured, use leashes and harnesses properly, and always double-check gates and locks. I also send regular photo and message updates so owners feel connected and reassured. I pride myself on being reliable, detail-oriented, and respectful of both pets and homes, which is why many families trust me for ongoing care.

Alex took wonderful care of my senior dog Georgie. He came to walk him, gave him a treat, and made sure his water bowl was full before leaving. He follows instructions carefully, is responsible and always punctual. I felt completely at ease knowing Georgie was in good hands. I will absolutely continue using Alex in the future, including longer stays. Highly recommend.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Rockleigh

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 25,634 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Rockleigh. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Rockleigh stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Rockleigh choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Rockleigh with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rockleigh. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
